Fine Tuning Problem of the Cosmological Constant in a Generalized Randall-Sundrum Model
Abstract
To solve the cosmological constant fine tuning problem, we investigate a -dimensional generalized Randall-Sundrum brane world scenario with two -branes instead of two 3-branes. Adopting an anisotropic metric ansatz, we obtain the positive effective cosmological constant of order and only require a solution . Meanwhile, both the visible and hidden branes are stable because their tensions are positive. Therefore, the fine tuning problem can be solved quite well. Furthermore, the Hubble parameter as a function of redshift is in good agreement with cosmic chronometers dataset. The evolution of the universe naturally shifts from deceleration to acceleration. This demonstrates that the evolution of the universe is intrinsically an extra-dimensional phenomenon. It can be seen as a dynamic model of dark energy which is driven by the evolution of the extra dimensions on the brane.
